I love the Divergent series! Are you enjoying it?

I'm reading a book branded by Lizette Edfelt and also Queen of shadows by S J Maas♥️

I really liked insurgent, hope you like it too, but wasn't a huge fan of allegiant

I'm reading The Banishment, likes a Cinderella Retelling but it also has heaps of other fairytale characters in it

Hey Alma, are S J Maas's novels worth reading? I see a lot of updates but not sure if it's worth picking up.

You liking it so far?

Yes, it's great. I found many differences between the movies and the books, but I'm loving it!

It's really good, but there is an annoying love triangle in it 😣 It's been going on since the second or third book.
This is the sixth book so I think she finally chooses in the seventh since it's the last, so we will see

But the action is done really well

Seems good. I hope the annoying part gets settled soon :)
So, you'd recommend it?

Yeah I would recommend it, definitely
It's very unique since it's not your typical fairytale and the MC is not gendered or stereotypical which I like :)

I liked twilight movies, haven't read the books yet though I'm going to soon :)
Are they good?

Hope you like your kindle reads, they both seem great :)

I think I'm gonna start Night now. It's a short book, I heard. Have you read it?

The books are in my opinion better than the movies, I still wish she would of wrote her book by Edward's point of view and not just a reverse gender Twilight.

Currently Reading A Wind at the Door second in the A Wrinkle in Time series.

yeah i agree the books are better!
and i actually bought night today!! i had never heard of it but i found it for a really good price, if its good tell me!

I hope I love the books more too! I didn't know she didn't write from Edward's POV, but it would've been fun and give us more insights too!

I haven't read that series yet, bcz I only have book 1 and I don't want to wait to get the second one!

I have read Night-it's great and also horrible.
It's not just a book but someone's life. I personally wish I could get more of it!
Tell me if you like it!

I am reading The Four novellas of The Divergent series. Have you guys read it? Did you like them?

i finished night, im interested in the other two stories day and dawn by the same author following his life, but i dont own them so next im reading everything is illuminated by Jonathan Foer

I really liked it-it kept me shocked too-not shocked really but I felt so bad and so much hatred for so many people.
Best of luck with your next read :)

okay, so i changed my mind! i never started everything is illuminated, i decided to reread simon vs the homosapiens agenda before i see the film on friday! has anyone seen the film is it good? how does it compare to the book?

Oh nice! I heard the movie is great-so many people loved it :)

I'm re-reading right now and I'm reading Diary Of Wimpy Kid

Have you guys read Matched??
Just recently started it with Nasom :)

Never heard of it, but it sounds good

I'm liking it! It's good!

Aqsa wrote: "Have you guys read Matched??

Oh! My mom loved the Matched trilogy haha, it's one of the few (or only) YAs she's read

I'm currently reading Cinder and enjoying it!

I'm getting ready for my first buddy read (!!) for Sword of Summer soon! I hope my library hold comes in in the next few days though :/ I own a hardcopy of it supposedly, but my sister lost it before she even gave it to me D:< She took of the dust cover too and NOW IT'S ALL SQUISHED! A lot of books she has borrowed have been damaged <.<

Great! I hope I get to love the whole trilogy too!
Cinder, I'm soon to start! Enjoy :)

Oh! My sister is just the same-I try not to give her and if I do, I give her proper instructions how to not destroy my books, which she gladly hears and forgets!

Glad to help :)

Matched was pretty good, and I loved The Sword of Summer.

I am listening to Proven Guilty (Harry Dresden 8) and The Three Musketeers on audio, reading Pines on Kindle, reading Democracy in America for nonfiction, and reading The Bird and the Sword in hard copy.

The Rose & the Dagger <3

WOW! So much! I have Pines to read soon!

Aqsa wrote: “WOW! So much! I have Pines to read soon!”

It’s so creepy; I can hardly stand it.

I read Dark Matter by him and I highly recommend it! It's a great read, and that's why I'm gonna read Pines-I hope I love it!
Creepy! I'd like creepy at the moment!

It’s that “something is off but I don’t know what it is” kind of creepy.

Audrey wrote: "It’s that “something is off but I don’t know what it is” kind of creepy."

ooo, creepy and thriller?

Now I’m suspecting a paranormal element.

I'll get to that trilogy soon :)

I’m not far in, but it’s promising so far. I am liking it more than Dark Matter, I think, though that had a great beginning.

You like it more than Dark Matter? Great!
This looks promising!

I just starting And Then There Were None.
Has anyone read it already?

Aqsa wrote: “I just starting And Then There Were None.

I just read that a few months ago. Watch the psychological breakdown of the characters.

Sure will! I hope I love it😉
